These are the rare cases where data leaks are a positive thing. As long they keep leaking, the world keeps learning what really is going on over there. No political views or opinions but real, verifiable data.
A leaked PSB database from Shanghai shows thousands of Uyghurs - including 400 minors - are on a blacklist and flagged as "suspected terrorists", some as young as five. One man was added for staying in a hotel in Hangzhou when "no Uyghurs [were] allowed" abc.net.au/news/2021-04-01/s…

Food for thought: Should Universities/funding councils who offer short term contracts where relocation is required e.g. post docs, provide private medical care? Ideally this wouldn't be needed but NHS waiting times are usually longer than the contract length. [1/3] @RealTimeChem

Very excited to be part of @HodgkinsonTom latest paper recently published in @ScienceAdvances! Finally a published author 🥳 @theglasgowcemi @UofGlasgow
Great to see our latest paper out today in @ScienceAdvances We used nanovibration to discover osteogenic metabolites and then supercharged their activity. A great multidisciplinary team effort! @polyomics @theglasgowcemi @TissueEngDublin advances.sciencemag.org/cont…
